Why is lung cancer at an advanced stage when it is discovered?Reminder If there is 1 coarseness, 1 numbness and 2 pain, it is the lungs that are calling for help!
Lung cancer, as one of the most common malignancies worldwide, often leads to patients entering an advanced stage once it is detected. This phenomenon has aroused widespread concern and prompted us to think deeply about how to detect the signs of lung cancer earlier. This article will discuss the importance of identifying the early symptoms of lung cancer and preventing it, in order to raise public awareness of lung cancer, promote the popularization of Chinese medicine, and let more people appreciate the charm of Chinese medicine.
1. Identification of early symptoms of lung cancer.
The early symptoms of lung cancer are usually mild, such as cough and difficulty breathing, and can be easily ignored. However, if we look closely, we can still find some key clues. According to TCM theory, an imbalance in the body's internal environment can lead to the appearance of a series of abnormal symptoms. Among them, "1 coarse, 1 numb and 2 pain" is a typical manifestation of lung cancer in the early stage, which deserves the attention of the general public.
"1 thick" refers to thickening of the fingers.
Due to the impaired function of the lungs, it may lead to abnormal thickening and thickening of the ends of the fingers, which is called "clubbing" in Chinese medicine. At this time, you should be alert to the possibility of lung cancer and get checked in time.
1 "numbness" refers to numbness in the arm. Lung cancer can compress nerves, causing numbness in one arm and, in severe cases, even daily activities. The appearance of this symptom often means that lung cancer has entered a more serious stage.
2 Pain" includes shoulder and back pain and chest pain. Pain from lung cancer is usually constant and more pronounced at night. This pain may be related to tumor invasion of the chest wall or metastasis to the bone.
2. Prevention is better than prevention.
In the face of lung cancer, a global health threat, prevention is even more important. Traditional Chinese medicine advocates "curing diseases before they occur", that is, by regulating the internal environment of the body and enhancing immunity, so as to achieve the purpose of preventing diseases. Here are some tips for preventing lung cancer:
1.Quit smoking: Smoking is one of the main risk factors for lung cancer. Quitting smoking can effectively reduce the risk of lung cancer, but it can also benefit other aspects of health.
2.Healthy Diet: Maintain a balanced diet rich in vitamins, minerals and antioxidants, such as fresh vegetables, fruits and whole grains. Reduce your intake of foods high in fat, sugar and salt.
3.Moderate exercise: Regular physical activity can help improve heart and lung function, enhance immunity, and reduce the risk of lung cancer.
4.Control of environmental factors: avoid long-term exposure to harmful environments such as air pollution and radioactive materials. Necessary protective measures should be taken for those engaged in related industries.
5.Traditional Chinese medicine conditioning: Under the guidance of traditional Chinese medicine theory, the internal environment of the body is regulated through traditional Chinese medicine, which helps to improve immunity and prevent the occurrence of lung cancer. Some traditional Chinese medicines such as ginseng, reishi, etc., are believed to have anti-cancer effects and can be taken appropriately.
6.Regular physical examinations: Regular chest X-rays or CT examinations can help detect lung abnormalities early and improve the diagnosis rate of lung cancer. Especially for high-risk groups such as those with a family history and long-term smoking, the importance of regular physical examination should be paid more attention.
7.Psychological Adjustment: Maintain an optimistic and positive attitude to reduce the negative impact of stress and anxiety on the body. Traditional Chinese medicine believes that emotional stability is essential for maintaining good health.
Summary: As a common malignant tumor, the prevention and treatment of lung cancer is of great significance. By understanding how to identify the early symptoms of lung cancer and the implementation of preventive measures, we are able to increase awareness and vigilance about lung cancer.
